next year, inflation in russia will approach the target level of 4%. let me remind you that in in some eu countries there are already 17 12 20%. we have almost four. well, five, the central bank and the ministry of finance are sorting it out among themselves. well, it will be close to the target, taking into account the positive dynamics of this and other macroeconomic parameters , objective conditions are being formed for reducing long-term lending rates in the economy. this means that credit for the real sector should become more accessible everywhere in the world. an important source of investment resources are long-term savings of citizens. and we also need to stimulate their inflow into the investment sphere. i am asking the government to expedite the submission of bills to the state duma to launch the state program from april. next year, it is important to create additional

conditions for citizens to invest money and earn money at home within the country, while it is necessary to guarantee the safety of citizens' investments in voluntary pension savings. there should be the same mechanism as in the bank deposit insurance system let me remind you of such contributions of citizens in the amount of 1.400.000 rubles. insured by the state and their return is guaranteed for voluntary pension savings, i propose to establish twice the amount up to 2 million 800,000 rubles. it is necessary to protect citizens' investments in other long-term and investment instruments, including from the possible bankruptcy of financial intermediaries. separate solutions required to attract capital fast-growing high-tech businesses

support for the placement of shares on the domestic stock exchange will be provided for them market, including tax incentives, both for the company and for buyers of such shares , the most important elements of economic sovereignty is the freedom of enterprise. i repeat, it is private business against the background of external attempts to contain russia that has proved that it can adapt to a rapidly changing contour. yes, you are not under easy conditions to ensure economic growth, so every business initiative aimed at benefiting the country should receive support. i think in this connection it is right to return to the issue of revising a number of norms of criminal legislation in terms of the so-called economic structures, of course.

of course, the state must control what is happening in this area, permissiveness cannot be allowed here, but it is also necessary to move more actively towards this criminalization, which i said i hope that the government, together with the parliament, law enforcement agencies, business associations, will have followers and thoroughly carry out this work, at the same time. i ask governments, in close contact with parliament, to propose additional measures, which will speed up the process of the economy. businesses primarily included in their sectors must operate in russian jurisdiction. this is the basic principle. dear colleagues. eh, so small. philosophical digression what would you like to say in this regard to the individual?

we remember what problems and imbalances the late soviet economy faced. therefore, after the collapse of the soviet union, its planned system, in the chaos of the nineties, the country began to create an economy based on market relations of private property. well, in general, everything is correct in western countries of advisers served as many examples here. as you know, there was a pond here and it seemed enough just to copy their models. i remember that the europeans were arguing with the americans. how to develop in the russian economy. and what happened as a result of our national economy has largely become oriented backwards, but in general, as a source

of this, too, is understandable. well, the new emerging russian business was, of course, aimed, like all other businesses in all other countries, primarily aimed at extracting arrived, and fast and and what brought it? well, this is the very sale of oil, gas, metals, forests, few people thought , and maybe there was no such opportunity to invest in a long one, so other more complex sectors of the economy developed poorly and to break this negative trend, but everyone saw great in all governments, but to break this trend, it took us years to tweak the tax system and massive public investment. we have achieved real visible change here. yes, there is a result, however i repeat must be taken into account. in what situation

did our first of all large business develop? technologies in the west are cheaper financial sources and profitable markets in the west, natural capital flows there too and unfortunately, instead of going to expand production to buy technology equipment to create new jobs here in russia they were also spent to overseas estates, luxury real estate yachts, yes to development, of course. well, at the first stage everything is there. a wide stream went to a considerable extent degree. here, for these purposes, for consumption, and where there is wealth. there naturally and children their education. there their lives are their future and to track down such a development

of the situation, the state was very difficult, but almost impossible. we lived the right free market. recent events have convincingly shown the image of the west as a safe harbor and a haven of capital turned out to be a fake ghost and those who did not understand this in time, who considered russia only as a source of income, but planned to live. basically, they lost a lot abroad. their. there they just robbed even legally earned money. somehow, as a joke, many remember, probably, referring to representatives of russian business. i said you are tormented by swallowing dust while running through the courts and offices of western officials. saving your money exactly, that's how it all happened. and you know, now

i will add a very important, simple, but very important thing. believe me, none of the ordinary citizens of the country. he did not regret those who lost their capital in foreign banks. he did not regret those who lost the yachts of palaces abroad and so on and so forth, and in conversations on in the kitchen, people probably remembered the privatization of the nineties, when enterprises created throughout the country went for nothing and ostentatious demonstrative luxury, the so-called new people. what else is fundamentally important all the years after the collapse of the soviet union, the west did not stop trying to set fire to the post-soviet state and , most importantly

, finally finish off russia. conflicts along the perimeter of our borders ignored our interests and used the means of economic deterrence and suppression. and big russian business, why i say all this, and big russian business is responsible for the operation of strategic enterprises for thousands of labor collectives determines the socio-economic situation in many regions, which means the state of affairs when the leaders and owners of such a business are dependent on the government who pursue an unfriendly policy towards russia poses a great threat to us , danger to our country and such a situation. it cannot be tolerated. yes everyone has a choice, someone wants to live out

his life in a arrested mansion blocked by accounts, try to find a place that would be hmm an attractive western capital or resort. in another warm place abroad, this is the right of any person. we don’t even encroach on it, but it’s time to understand that for the west, such people were and will remain in common strangers with whom you can to do anything and money and connections and purchased titles of counts of peers. and there mayors. absolutely no help here, they must understand, they are second-class there. but if there is another choice to be with your homeland, work for compatriots, not only open new enterprises, but also change life around you in

the cities of settlements in your country, and we have many such entrepreneurs, such real fighters in business. they are the future of domestic business. and the future should be only here in the native country in russia and then we will really create a solid self-sufficient economy that does not close itself off from the world, but use those of its competitive advantages, russian capital, the money that is received here should work for the country for its national development. today, we have great prospects in the development of infrastructure, the manufacturing industry of domestic tourism in many other industries. i want to be heard by those who are faced with

wolf habits. west trying to run around with money outstretched hand is pointless. and the main thing. it's useless, especially. now that you understand well who you are dealing with. now you should not cling to the past, try to sue something to beg, you need to rebuild your life and your work. moreover, you strong people addressed the representatives of our business. i know many, personally and for many years, strong people who have gone through a difficult life school. well start new projects. earn, invest in russia , invest jobs in the enterprise, help schools and universities of science and health, culture and sports just like that and increase your capital and earn recognition of the gratitude of people, but

the next generation, and the state and society will certainly support you. we will consider that this is a parting word to our business, you are building work in the right direction, dear colleagues, russia is an open country and, at the same time, a distinctive civilization. in this statement. there is no claim to exclusivity and superiority. but this is our civilization. that's what the main thing was passed on to us by our ancestors, and we must preserve it for our descendants and pass it on to develop cooperation with friends with all ready to

work together. we will adopt all the best, but rely primarily on our potential, the creative energy of russian society, our traditions and values. and here i want to talk about the character of our people. he has always been distinguished by generosity , breadth of soul, mercy and compassion, and russia as a country fully reflects in itself these traits we are able to. we know how to be friends and keep our word we will not let anyone down and will always support in difficult situations without hesitation we come to the aid of those who are in trouble. uh, everyone remembers how during a pandemic. we were the first to, in fact, provided support to some european countries, including italy, by another state in the most difficult, mm. we will not forget the most difficult weeks, the outbreaks of covid, and how we come to the rescue.

uh, in the event of an earthquake in syria in turkey , it is the people of russia that are the basis of the country's sovereignty, the source of power, the rights and freedom of our citizens, they are unshakable guaranteed by the constitution and despite external challenges and threats. we will not deviate from them in this regard , i want to emphasize. in this regard, i would like emphasize that and elections to local and regional authorities. this september and the 2024 presidential elections will be held in strict accordance with the law, in compliance with all democratic constitutional procedures. the choice is always different approaches to solving social economic problems, at the same time, the leading political forces are consolidated and united in the main thing, and most importantly, the security and well-being of the people

, sovereignty and national interests, are fundamental for all of us. i want to thank you for this responsibility a firm position and recall the words of the patriot and statesman stolypin, they were said in the state duma more than 100 years ago, but fully consonant with our time. he said in the defense of russia we must all combine our efforts to harmonize our duties and our rights in order to maintain one historical supreme right - the right of russia to be strong.

among the volunteers who are now at the forefront are deputies of the state duma and regional parliaments, representatives of executive authorities of various levels municipalities of cities districts of rural settlements, all parliamentary parties, leading public association is involved in the collection of humanitarian supplies to help the front. thanks again. thanks for being so patriotic. a huge role in strengthening civil society in solving everyday problems is played by local self-government , the level of public authority that is closest to the people , trust in the state largely depends on its work. in general, the social well-being of citizens is their confidence in the successful development of the whole country. i ask the presidential administration jointly with the government to submit

a proposal for the creation of hmm tools for direct support of the best management teams practitioners in large medium and small municipalities free development of society. this is a willingness to take responsibility for oneself and for those close to one's country, such qualities are laid down from childhood in the family, and of course , education systems are extremely important to strengthen our common values ​​of national identity internet development institute, other instruments of the state will support all forms of creative belt, modern and traditional art, realism and avant-garde classics and innovation is not a matter of genres and directions of culture. called to serve the good, the beauty of harmony. to reflect on the sometimes very

complex controversial issues of life and , most importantly, not to destroy society, but to awaken the best human qualities , the development of the cultural sphere will become one of the priorities of the revival of peaceful life in the donbass. new russia. here you need to restore repair and equip hundreds of cultural institutions, including museum funds and buildings that give people the opportunity to feel the relationship of the past belonging to feel belonging to a single cultural historical educational space of centuries-old great russia with the participation of teachers and scientists. we must seriously improve the quality of school university courses, as for the humanities , first of all, the history of social science,

literature and geography, so that young people can learn as much as possible about russia, its great past about our culture and traditions. we have a very bright talented young generation who is ready to work for the good of the country in science, culture, the social sphere in business and public administration for such people . competitions are opening up new horizons for professional growth leader of russia renaissance leaders will note that a number of winners are finalists of these projects. volunteered into combat units. many are now working on liberated territories help to establish economic and social life. at the same time, the school of fighting acts professionally, decisively and courageously. i 'm nothing else people leave from there. and they are ready

to lay down their lives for the fatherland, wherever they work. i would like to emphasize that those who were born, grew up in the donbass in novorossiya and fought for them will be the main pillars in the overall work on the development of these regions. i would like to address them and say that russia is counting on you. taking into account the large-scale tasks facing the country. we should seriously update the approach to the system of training personnel for science and technology policy at the recent council on science education. we talked about the need to clearly prioritize and concentrate resources on obtaining specific , fundamentally significant scientific results, primarily in those areas where we have good groundwork and which are critical for the life

of the country, including transport, energy, the housing and communal services system, medicine, agriculture, and industry. based on new technologies in practice, there is always fundamental research. well, when you did basic research, and in this area as well as in culture. i want to emphasize this, we must give scientific researchers more freedom for creativity. well, you can’t all for the results of tomorrow already, fundamental science lives according to its own laws, and i will add that it is setting and solving ambitious tasks. this is a powerful incentive for young people. to go into science is an opportunity to prove that you are the leader, that you are the best in the world and our scientific teams have, something to be proud of last december. i met with young researchers one of

the questions that they raised this housing, rosa is like that. well, the important thing is that we already have housing certificates for young scientists . last year, we allocated an additional 1 billion rubles for these purposes. i instruct the government. identify reserves for expanding this industry program to work machinery engineering, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals , agriculture, and defense industry transport construction. nuclear and other key industries to ensure safety russia's sovereignty and competitiveness is finally a very important question a very important question about our higher education. significant changes are also overdue here, taking into account the new requirements for specialists in the economics of social sectors in all spheres of our

life, a synthesis is needed. all the best that was in the soviet education system and the experience of the last decades. in this regard , the following is proposed. the first is to return to the traditional for our country basic training of specialists with higher education . the duration of study can be from 4 to 6 years, while even within the same specialty and one university , programs can be offered with different training periods, depending on the specific profession of the industry and the demand of the labor market. secondly, if the profession requires additional training of a narrow specialization, then in this case the young person will be able to continue his education in a magistracy or residency

; want emphasize the transition to the new system should be smooth government. together with parliamentarians, it will be necessary to make numerous amendments to the legislation on labor education and so on. here you need to think through everything to work out the little things. the youth of our citizens should have new opportunities for quality education for the employment of professional youth. our citizens should have new opportunities for quality education for employment and professional growth. once again, opportunities, not problems, and i will especially note. and i will especially note those students

who are studying now will be able to continue their education according to existing programs and are also not subject to revision of the level of training and diplomas of higher education of citizens who have already completed training in the current undergraduate specialty or master's programs. they must not lose their rights. i ask the general russian popular front to take all issues related to changes in the field of higher education under special control. this year russia has been declared the year of the teacher and mentor teacher teacher is directly involved in building the future of the country and it is important to increase the social significance of teacher work so that parents tell their children more about gratitude to the teacher, and teachers respect and love for parents. let's always remember this.

i will dwell separately on the support of children and russian families, i will note that the so-called children's budget or the amount of budgetary spending on supporting families in russia in recent years has grown by several times. it is the fastest growing section the main financial document of the country's budget is the budget law. i would like to thank the parliamentarians and the government for such a unified and consolidated understanding of our national priorities. since february 1, maternity capital in russia has been indexed again, as we said, it is the actual inflation rate for the past year, that is, by 11.9%, the right to such a measure of support, now russian citizens , residents of new constituent entities of the federation, also have the right to provide maternity capital in the donetsk and luhansk national

republics of zaporozhye and kherson regions , families in which children were born since 2007, that is, from the moment this program began to operate, throughout russia, let me remind you. we made the same decision in due time and for the residents of crimea and sevastopol we will continue to implement large-scale programs aimed at improving the well-being of russian families, emphasizing the objective task set before the government and the subjects of the federation to ensure a noticeable tangible increase in real wages in russia is important indicator starting point here it is the minimum wage, as we well understood last year. it was raised twice in total by almost 20%. we will

continue to increase the minimum wage, and at a rate above inflation and growth. hmm salaries for the first time this year mrut indexed by six and three tenths of a percent. i propose on january 1 next year, in addition to the planned increase , to carry out another one by an additional 10%. thus, the minimum wage will increase by 18.5 percent. and will amount to 19.000.242 rubles. now, with regard to the adjustment of the tax system in the interests of russian families , since last year, families with two or more children are exempt from paying tax on the sale of housing, if they decide to purchase a new, more spacious apartment or house, they need to

use such tools more actively. they turned out to be in demand, so that it was in family budgets.
